* Kalalau Trail (with drone!) - Top 10 most dangerous hikes? KAUAI (06:00) (wrj56)
(c) William Jans (*please subscribe so I can create more!) Join Vancouver photographer / adventurer William Jans' wee jaunt on the amazing Kalalau Trail on the Na Pali Coast in Kauai. The start date of Dec 8 was vexed with both a Flash Flood warning and Tsunami warning. Both must have abated since hikers were allowed to continue. Hiking in winter means MUDDY! But this is still a great adventure. If you choose to do this, please be respectful of these lands deemed sacred by the Hawaiian and of course be prepared (!) and heed warnings and pay for permits too of course! (*note this is (c) William Jans. Do not copy or repost any without permission).
Filmed, edited and created by William Jans with 1 drone, 4 video cameras and 1 pro DSLR camera for stills. All gear and no clothes = 1 stinky William.
Credits at the end to thank the great new friends I met along the way. Some of these amazing folks were kind enough to participate and some were super kind in loaning me battery chargers when some of my many batteries went kaput.
Thanks for helping this get more than the 4800 views goal on this! (that is 10% of 48,000 footsteps it took to complete this 37km trip).
This looks kind of Wow on big screen if you have :-)
Notes / Disclaimers:
- This is not all that dangerous if you are careful. Some do run (portions) of this trail out and back (I would like to do that too).
- Hawaiians I encountered described the many yahoos going at this glibly with no respect for the dangers, so requested I show the risks to mitigate everyone thinking this is merely a walk in the park.
- There is distortion from wide angle shots looking down at my feet that make it seem more sheer than it is. To better assess the pitch, please look at the other images in the footage (including stills) that show the drop-off accurately.
- Flash floods and ocean surf have reputedly taken more lives than falls, so be wary in crossing or considering playing in the water.
Thanks for watching and I hope you might check out my other videos or full shows too! They have been live shows in Canada only this far, but I am creating *Streaming versions for 2017! If 80,000 Canadians enjoyed them, I hope other citizens of of other countries might like them too.If you subscribe here, I will add clips to announce dates when set.

Kauai, Hawaii - Na Pali Coast - Kalalua Trail to Hanakapiai Falls hike
My husband and I spent a week in Kauai in October 2013. On our first day we were still acclimated to 6 hours earlier Texas time so we got up bright and early and started this hike as soon as the sun came up and the 15 minute rain shower stopped. We were on the trail by 6:30 each carrying 70 ounces of water in a camel back and some trail mix and granola bars. We hiked the first section of the Kalalau trail to Hanakapiai beach and Hanakapiai Falls. This video was shot with a GoPro Hero 3 Black and a GoPole to get the selfie shots.
My husband used a Cannon 7D with an 18 to 55mm lens. The intro is a screen shot from Google Earth showing the trailhead, beach and falls. At 5:57 I inserted a picture from our Helicopter tour showing the Hanakapiai Beach from the air. I have hiked all over the US and would say that all hikers should put this one on their bucket list as one of the must see trails in your lifetime. With only the 15 minute rain the trail was very slippery so try for a day with no rain.
The views of the Na Pali coast hiking along the cliffs and after 2 miles we reached the beach After 4 miles we arrived at the 300' waterfall and swam in the cool clear water. The hike was difficult but should be on everyone's bucket list.

Hanakapi'ai Falls, Kalalau Trail, Kauai, Hawaii, Na Pali
Fran soaks it all in - and then gets soaked in the pool below the falls; we both swam in it! Freezing but refreshing after a very muddy hike!
HAWAII, KAUAI. WAIPOO FALLS IN THE CANYON OF THE PACIFIC!!
PLEASE CLICK ON THAT LIKE BUTTON AND SUBSCRIBE TO MY CHANNEL TO GET AUTOMATICALLY UPDATED ON MY NEW POSTS!!
Today's adventure led us up to Waipoo Falls, which lies deep within the Waimea Canyon on Kauai! It was such an amazing day!! Had the opportunity to meet a lot of new people from all over the world on the trail and took a swim in the waterfall:)
Just wanted to continue in sending my gratitude to all my supporters so far!! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH !!:)
Waipoo Falls is the biggest waterfall you see from the main Waimea Canyon lookout looking to the left. If you drive past the lookout a few more miles you reach the beginning of the trail. If you have a 4-wheel drive vehicle you can drive down a narrow dirt road to save you about half a mile of walking. From there you have about a mile to get to the falls but as you are walking you are deep within the canyon looking into it almost the whole time. It is surreal.
As always please be considerate of the island by picking up your trash and staying on designated hiking trails. I would not recommend hiking when it is raining, wet, or muddy. There are multiple places where you are close to cliffs edge and it will be fatal. PLEASE KOKUA

Running the Kalalau Trail on the Na Pali Coast of Kauai
The Kalalau Trail leads 11 miles along the rugged Nā Pali Coast on the north shore of the island of Kauai, Hawaii. The Trail traverses 5 lush valleys, above towering cliffs, before ending at Kalalau Beach where it is blocked by sheer, fluted pali. Most will take between 2-3 days to finish the trail. Our plan was to travel fast and light, running the entire 22 mile return trip in roughly 8 hours. Read my full trip report including map on my website at:
For anyone planning on visiting Kauai, I'd recommend picking up a copy of 'The Ultimate Kauai Guidebook, Kauai Revealed':

Kauai, Hawaii 2010
Another great trip to Kauai and another batch of photos to sort through. Here are a few of my favorites. All photos taken with a Nikon D80. The ocean sound FX were recorded by me from a location near Anini Beach on the north side of the island. Photo locations included Polihali State Beach, Waimea Pier, Poipu Beach, Kapaa, Hanalei Bay, Ke'e Beach and a few other places. While in Kauai I stayed at a fantastic Ocean front condo in Kapaa. If you are planning a trip to I highly recommend checking out A great place with an incredit ocean view, centrally located and super reasonably priced. Great people to work with too!
Kalalau, Na Pali Coast, Kauai
The Kalalau Trail is a breathtaking, scenic trail along Kauai's Na Pali Coastline. The strenuous but very doable hike is 11 miles along hanging valleys, jagged emerald cliffs, mountain streams and back to sea level to Kalalu Beach/Kalalau Valley. Kauai, Hawaii. Best camping ever!
Farmer's Market in Hanalei, Kauai, HI - KVIC-TV, myKauai.com [Event]
Nanea Marston explores Hanalei's Saturday morning farmer's market; meets the shoppers, samples the produce and kava.
Try the seedless tangerines. Um hm. Don't bite, insert the entire thing into your mouth, chew and swallow. Tip number one, we're learning here.
Tell me about your lovely produce. Everything was harvested this morning as far as the greens go.
This is our traditional kava bowl, this is our kava brew right here, and this is a beverage we've been drinking for centuries throughout the pacific islands. How do you use this? Add water? We get the roots sun-dried, we put them in a pounder or blender and turn them into a powder. Can I taste some? Sure Nanea. This is it right here. You gotta drink it all at one time. Really? That's a lot. It's all good. It gets better.

Phantoming Ke'e Beach, Hanalei, Kauai, Hawaii, 02.18.2015.
This beach is the last beach accessible by car on the north shore of Kauai and is probably the most visited on the island. The famed Kalalau Trail begins at the western end of the beach. Several movies and mini-series have been filmed here such as The Thorn Birds and Castaway Cowboys.
Kauai Island, Hawaii, USA 4K (UHD)
Kauai Island known also as the Garden Island. The tiny tropical island. This is one of the three Hawaiian islands that I decided to visit. I spent three days there, drove 315 miles by car and visited, incl. the places described below. My hotel was in the Kapaa area. It is geologically the oldest and northernmost island of the main Hawaiian Islands. Some parts of Kauai are only accessible by sea or air. Island is characterized by its wealth of lush, rich lands, including vast tropical rainforests, jaw-dropping mountains and stunning beaches. Part of Kauai’s unique charm is the fact that the island has remained relatively undeveloped.
